Clocking Modular with Audio Pulse
I have set up a simpler with audio pulse and I have set the audio output to my modular so it will run the clock of my system , this works fine but I can hear the audio pulse over a track , tried setting monitoring to off but then I lose the pulse to my modular , any help would be great .

Re: Clocking Modular with Audio Pulse
I had a similar problem with "thump" in my modular.
The trick is to run the pulse through a slew limiter first, to cut the abrupt leading edge of the pulse. If you have a VCA with an anti-thump adjustment (usually a trim pot on the back of the module), you can use that too.

Re: Clocking Modular with Audio Pulse
Had another idea while I was in a meeting this morning...
I remembered that I've clocked my modular off a looping clip with kick drum samples on it. And when I use my drum machine as a trigger source, I usually use the kick from that too. So try swapping out your pulse sample with a kick drum sample. That will probably eliminate your thump problem as well.
